What is Cryotherapy?
WBC is the process of exposing the body to hyper cool temperatures in order to elicit the natural healing process. Developed in Japan in the 1970s, WBC is used by professional athletes to decrease recovery time and improve performance and by clients seeking recovery from musculoskeletal pain.
Do I need to bring anything?
No preparation is needed prior to arriving at the center. Because dry air is used, there is no need to shower afterwards. It is common for patients to use the Cryosauna during a lunch break from work as the process is quick, clean, and simple.

Can I work out before/after a Cryotherapy session?
Yes. It’s common for athletes to utilize WBC prior to workout in order to increase flexibility, range of motion, blood flow, and oxygen flow.

It is recommended that you shower prior to a session and avoid using any lotions or other topical products beforehand.
How often should I use Whole Body Cryotherapy?
